Defensive End/ Defensive Tackle Calais Campbell

The Jaguars had a rough week defensively last week but that doesn’t mean that the defense is bad.

With all of the hype surrounding Minshew on offense and Jalen Ramsey trade rumors on defense, it is easy to forget the talent this defense possesses. Calais Campbell is one of those players that can dominate a game single handily.

Like a fine wine, Campbell just keeps getting better with age. He didn’t do much to stop Carolina last week, but this week look for him to have a big impact. Whenever questions about his age seem to come up, he responds with a big performance.

The Saints offensive line is a solid unit, but they do have some flaws and there will be opportunities to make plays with the pass rush. If New Orleans feels pressure early on it could knock this offense out of their rhythm. Campbell is the leader of a very good defensive line, one that must get to Bridgewater often.

Watch for Campbell to put pressure on Bridgewater a few times, come away with a sack and get at least two tackles for a loss.
